"I am laid low in the dust, preserve my life according to our word". This is very significant. The word of God is the word of life. The word of God is more enduring than anything else, and His word speaks life to us, not death.
We come to God in honesty, admitting who and what we are, and we come looking for instruction, looking for change.
"Cause me to understand". We need God's help, the help of the Holy Spirit, in order to understand.
Sorrow and trouble wearies our soul. It exerts a cost on our soul and there is only so much that we can take. So where does our strength come from? It comes from the word. The word of God keeps us from deceitful ways. It is so common for humans to use deceit as a weapon, as a means of coping.
Instead we should chose the way of faithfulness and set our hearts on the word of God.
If we make the word of the Lord our pathway then our hearts will be free. It will bring true freedom into our lives.
